“The Rich Never Praise You” – Pastor Victor Kanyari Explains Why He Prefers Blessings Of Less Fortunate Followers
Controversial Salvation Healing Ministry preacher Victor Kanyari has shared a candid assessment of his followers’ economic demographics, claiming that less fortunate individuals are far more genuinely appreciative, loyal, and vocal with their gratitude than the wealthy.
Speaking to his congregation, the self-styled televangelist explained that he actively draws emotional energy from his interactions with ordinary citizens, who frequently shower him with public adoration and creative nicknames without demanding anything in return.
“They Will Keep Singing Your Name”
Kanyari detailed a stark contrast in how different social classes interact with religious leaders, arguing that affluent individuals rarely offer validation, whereas ordinary citizens show immense gratitude for even the smallest acts of support.
“And the people who are not well off often keep praising a person like me,” Kanyari observed. “And they say, ‘Oh wow, you are so rich and you have a lot of money.’ And I say yes, feeling so happy. The rich will never heap praises on you, but the low-class people, just give them a little and they will keep singing your name.”
The preacher noted that this enthusiastic backing has elevated his public profile, with his most loyal supporters constantly inventing new praise titles and accompanying monikers whenever they refer to him in public spaces.
Inside His Daughter’s Ksh500,000 Digital Empire
In a separate disclosure that surprised his congregation, Kanyari revealed that financial acumen runs deep in his household, revealing that his daughter, Sky Victor, commands a monthly income of up to Ksh500,000 entirely through digital content creation.
Addressing his midweek service, the proud father praised his daughter’s business-minded approach, describing her as a sharp Nairobi creator who has fully mastered the mechanics of online audience retention. However, he jokingly lamented that despite his best efforts to manage her wealth, the young creator maintains an iron-clad grip on her digital revenue.
“She earns that per month. Imagine if it were you earning Ksh500,000 every month as she does,” Kanyari shared. “She always insists that the money has to go to her account. I often try to convince her to deposit some of the money into my account, but she says no, that it is her money.”
The Behind-the-Scenes Cooking Tricks
Amused by the realities of modern lifestyle vlogging, Kanyari went on to expose the clever production secrets behind his daughter’s highly lucrative, relatable videos, which often focus on domestic life and traditional culinary arts.
The preacher confessed that while audiences frequently marvel at her homemaking skills, he is often the invisible chef executing the heavy lifting behind the camera.
“She is a very sharp girl. Most of the content she does involves things like cooking ugali, but she uses tricks because she poses with the cooked ugali, and people think she is the one who cooked it, yet I am actually the one who cooked it. She only comes later to create the content,” he added with a smile.
Kanyari’s reflections highlight the massive generational shift within the modern Kenyan church, where traditional clerical influence is increasingly intersecting with the highly profitable, hyper-curated world of social media content creation.
